Sorry Jon I didn't get a pic.
I have a paddock stand Dusty but I'll leave her on the wooden one for now.

Thought I'd fit that speedo drive tang today. Managed to heft the beastie back on the stand. Wheel out, tang and dust cover in. Then removed the stand and went inside. Then it dawned on me I should have left it on the bloody stand and checked if the speedo worked! Dammit. I'll do that tomorrow. Next job is to fit the engine. This is so close now I can smell the 2 stroke. Alex

Fascinating stuff. Wondering if blackbirds have the same 'language'. I have a pair that live here and they are wonderful to watch. I call the male Daffy lol.

Good grief. And that Kwaker looks almost standard.

Shame you didn't pop to the pub every time you finished a build Dusty. First time £2 a pint. Now £6. Makes Yamaha price inflation seem quite tame by comparison!

Turned the bracket over... One thing puzzles me. Why is there only one bolt holding each horn on? Does everyone use Loctite? Also made a start on a infill panel to house some electrics... Alex

Looking at it again I think I might have the bracket on upside down...I'll have another go tomorrow.

Carried on today. Thought I'd better fit the horn bracket Al made for me before I did the headlight. On the Mito forks there is only one hole drilled on the yoke, for the speedo cable guide, so I drilled another. On goes the new horns, wasn't sure of the position I wanted them to be at first. But the with the headlight in place they need to be at a more jaunty angle... Not like this as they'd smash into the mudguard! And ended up plonking the clocks on. Alex
